The Catamounts got on the board and took the lead with two goals in 22 seconds apart late in the first period. Strong netted the first, his sixth of the year, from Kyle Medvec (Burnsville, Minn.) and Peter Lenes (Shelburne, Vt.) at 17:26

The River Hawks out-shot the Catamounts 28 to 16 for the game, including 10-4 in the third period. UVM was 2-for-4 on the power play. UML was 0-for-3 on the man-advantage.

"We did everything but win the game," said UML head coach Blaise MacDonald. "We created a lot of good opportunities for ourselves. We competed pretty hard and had some good chances in the third period to tie it. Their goalie out-played our goalie. They were extremely opportunistic."

The River Hawks and Catamounts conclude their season series Saturday night at the Tsongas Arena. Game time is set for 7:00 p.m.
